Unforgotten Season 6 Explores Complex Themes and Emotional Twists

The latest season of ITV's crime drama delves into topical social issues while maintaining its signature investigative intrigue.

Season 6 of Unforgotten follows DCI Jessica James and DI Sunny Khan as they investigate the dismembered remains of Gerry Cooper found on Whitney Marsh.
The season incorporates themes such as domestic violence, racism, asylum-seeking, and the lingering effects of the Covid-19 pandemic.
A mix of new characters and returning cast members adds depth to the narrative, with standout performances from Victoria Hamilton and MyAnna Buring.
The season has been praised for its ambition in tackling contemporary societal issues but has faced criticism for sidelining the central crime investigation at times.
ITV has not yet confirmed a seventh season, though high viewership and cast enthusiasm suggest a renewal is likely.
